The Temple Neuf was built from 1901 to 1904 in gray sandstone in the Neo-Romanesque style in the Jardin des Amours at the end of the Place de la Comédie, and forms a picturesque contrast to the classical architecture of the opera house. When illuminated at dusk, it appears in all its splendor, reflecting in the Moselle, offering one of the most beautiful night views of the city. Tourisme-metz.com

Of the original 17 city gates, only the German Gate in the east remains. Named after the former hospital of the Teutonic Order, which stood nearby, it was built as an entrance to the city on a bridge over the Seuille River. A medieval structure straight out of a picture book.
